Have you ever wanted to stick your TOE in to test the waters of sock knitting? In this class, Jennifer Hallan will WALK you through the STEPS needed to make the perfect-for-beginners I’m So Basic Socks by Summer Lee. You'll learn the basics of cuff down sock knitting. Students should know how to knit/purl, do simple decreases (k2tog, ssk) and work in the round. If you have taken any of our hat or cowl classes, you are good to go!
